A little jem today, I was out the front loading the car and a started chatting with neighbour as they passed, They have been quoted £2½K to 'sort out' their 3 CU's (main house, granny annex & garage) following a fault.
A Merlin MCB tripped on overload (Damaged mower cable) and now mechanically challenged, the called out lectric guy (insurance service) has said the board needs replacing as 'MCB's not available' but also fed incorrectly - 16mm² tails feed first board then T&E looped round to the other 2 boards without further switch gear or protection.

I have put a SH Merlin MCB in (the insurance service is only a safety service), Other than adding a fused switch to feed the remote boards I don't see any issues.
